Fit Friday Baking:Honey Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Normally oatmeal cookies are made with butter and sugar, but mine are lightened up with honey and a little canola oil. Canola oil is low in saturated fat and a good source of healthy omega-3 fats. Raw honey is natures original sweetener and contains 21 calories per serving 🙂 Research has found that raw honey specifically, contains pro-biotic bacteria that helps with a healthy digestive system!
